Im sure some people have seen this, but these results are really good. I guess its a liposomal gel only available in italy right now.

I’m actually coming up to about 7 weeks using morr f 5% finasteride/min with weekly 1.5mm dernaroller and occasional nizoral on my crown area and am starting to notice thickening and some slight filling in. I’m early stages and altho I haven’t taken pics it’s quite promising but I will keep going and see what results I get. I agree those pics from that article are great

Good find...anyone who is sensitive to oral finasteride up for contacting dr. Insalaco about trying his finasteride gel without minoxidil? Before you ask me to do it, I cant try ot until others do for fear of being in a crash for the next year. Others often quickly recover. Anyone?

I've been using the finasteride gel for two years and it stopped my hairloss, but didn't get much regrowth. No side effects (or at least I can't feel them).
The cost is quite high though, 60€/month

Goodsend we are going to pick your brain man....so did you try oral finasteride before trying the finasteride gel? Any side effects with oral finasteride?
Did you have to visit his office to get the gel? Is it the finasteride/minoxidil mix gel?

Does the minoxodil work with liposomal delivery also or does it still go systemic?

This topical finasteride thing must be clarified once and for all.
DOES IT GIVE SIDES?

I just found 0.1% finasteride min pack with liposomal vehicle from pharm company fagron and i am looking forward. Price 28 euro

The study linked above said no sides were reported.

you need a prescription for this. It has to be compounded by the pharmacy

Does anyone have a link to a liposomal finasteride study showing / comparing serum DHT levels? I fully realize that any formulation of finasteride will reduce serum DHT but I am of the opinion that a lower DHT reduction could reduce side effects.

If the liposomal vehicle works, then I imagine this formula would be the way to go if you wanted to use topical minoxidil as well as topical finasteride. So you could theoretically overdose on finasteride if you used both regular topical minoxidil with a >1% liposomal finasteride together right?

Btw I just checked a box of Morr-f I have lying around and it lists only 3 ingredients, isopropyl alcohol, minoxidil and finasteride. Does anyone know what they mean by "Lipids"?

The topical finasteride liposomal gel do produce side effects, just not as bad as the pill.

This is incorrect. It does affect serum DHT but does not necessarily give side effects. Many people who injest finasteride get no side effects.
